Marshall Beagles®

For over 50 years the Marshall Beagle® has contributed to the safety and efficacy testing of new medicines and therapies for both humans and animals. The colony was established in 1962, and was officially closed in 1967.

APD/SPF Marshall Beagles®

Our Antibody Profile Defined/Specific Pathogen Free (APD/SPF) Marshall Beagles® are the cleanest beagles available, making them the best canine model for developing new veterinary medicines and vaccines marketed for pets.

These dogs display everything one should expect from a typical Marshall Beagle®, including the same calm and gentle temperament.

This colony is raised in a complete barrier environment and remains unvaccinated. The dogs are antibody negative for many common canine pathogens including Adenovirus Types 1 and 2, Distemper, Herpes Virus, Parainfluenza, Parvovirus, Rabies, Borrelia, Erlichia and Leptospira. They also remain free of sub-clinical infection including Giardia and Coccidia.
